Ami6 Whitney (Jonathan5, Jonathan4, Jonathan3, Benjamin2, John1) son of Capt. Jonathan5 and Esther (Parkhurst) Whitney was born 12 Jan 1781 at Conway, MA[1] and died 14 Dec 1867 at Seneca Castle, NY, at age 86, gravestone[2].

Ami married Anna Amsden, daughter of Isaac and Elizabeth (Gates) Amsden, 7 Dec 1800 at Hopwell, NY; Source being sought. Thus far it is only a trail of e-mail addresses.** Date of the marriage comes from an unpublished typewritten manuscript entitled "Some Descendants of Isaac Amsden of Cambridge, MA: by Murray M. Brown, copywright 1934. This manuscript is in the possession of Mr. Bill Bombard of Boston, MA, who has kindly shared the Amsden data with several researchers, and is the person to whom the e-mail trail was traced. In the manuscript Mr. Brown thanks "some individual coòVa*Ç1m*ntributors and town clerks in general." but does not specifically identify any one source for any specific datum. For 1934, this is not surprising; d. at Prob. Flint Creek, NY.

He A duplicate record says Jan 16th. There is an Ami Whitney and an Ami Whitney Jr. in Seneca, Ontario Co., NY in the 1850 Census Index.**Amsden Genealogy ([email protected]) shows his birthdate as 18 Jan 1781. Author queried.

Children of Ami and Anna (Amsden) Whitney:

i. Charles7 Whitney, b: 22 Nov 1831, at Niagra Falls, New York; m: Charlotte W. Crittenden.
